Lonely City

Ithaca, Winter 2014

When I looked up the beautiful Ithaca, I saw a peaceful, quiet, and harmonious town with twinkling lights. I wondered, if everyone in town was enjoying a family time at the current moment. I wondered, when and where I could call home in this foreign country.

Desert Dream

Joshua Tree National Park, Winter 2014

I read about Joshua tree when I was a little kid. I dreamed about seeing one. Now I am actually in the heart of the Joshua Tree, smelling thousands of them.

Fall, Coffee

Ithaca, Fall 2014

Leaves were falling in my apartment, with the smell of coffee. It was a warm and sunny afternoon. I wasn't doing anything. I was sitting at the window with a cup of coffee, enjoying such wonderful fall colors of Ithaca.

Ithaca's Fall

Ithaca, Fall 2013

Although a severe winter is coming, we can just forget about the snows but enjoy such beautiful scene in Ithaca. Looking down from college town, I see waves of colors, leaves, and hidden houses smiling at me.
